	BNW News Blog: Biafra Nigeria World News: Gusau, Odili drafted for 2007 Presidency

		A North West/South South ticket may have been laid on the table by Aso Rock to wrong foot agitators for the Presidency in 2007, but what is in it for the South East is at best dubious.

	Nigeriaworld Feature Article - The new logjam: Between Obasanjo and Atiku Abubakar
		The impression has been sold to the whole world by Atiku Abubakar's pen pushers that the issue at stake is Obasanjo's scheme (or is it hidden agenda) to succeed himself and extend his romance with Aso Rock.
		If it is true that Atiku Abubakar owns the large house in Potomac, Maryland, United States, he should just resign and get out of Aso Rock.
		Atiku Abubakar has been a civil servant most of his life and as such cannot claim to have worked so hard to provide so much for one wife in Maryland, for Titi and her children and then for his third wife who is a Director-General in one of the Northern states.

	News -- Emir of Kano stoned at swearing-in ceremony
		It would be recalled that Bayero had early this week issued a statement, pointing out that his visit to Aso Rock was misconstrued as it was not an act of betrayal as perceived by many people in the state.
		The swearing-in ceremony of new Kano State Governor, Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, was yesterday marred by unruly behaviour of miscreants, who used the occasion to stone and boo the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero.
		However, the action of the thugs, believed to be supporters of Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), was sequel to the recent solidarity visit the emir paid to President Olusegun Obasanjo alongside the immediate past governor of the state, Rabiu Musa Kwakwanso.

		Ojukwu was campaigning among the Ndigbo world-wide that he needed their votes to enable him take them back to Nigeria through Aso Rock.
		Ojukwu was playing the politics of the tripod that some of us fought against in the Constituent Assembly in 1977, thanks to people like General TY Danjuma, Chief SD Lar, late Dr.
		Buhari and Ojukwu would be shocked to find out that their agents were in collusion with some other people to rig at the polling stations.

	Between Chukwuemka Odumegwu Ojukwu and Nigeria( Emeka Ojukwu & Nigeria )
		That is why Ojukwu with his renowned and radiant qualities has through his entrant into the 2003 presidential race and bid to occupy Aso Rock generated a great dust.
		When Ojukwu, the General of the people's Army speaks, his views are not seen as his but that of the Igbo.
		The coarse language against Pa Ojukwu was that he attempted to lead Biafra out of Nigeria and an ungrounded " apportioned blames" for the three-year war (1966- 70) of which he was an actor.

		But their worry was soon laid to rest as Emedolu not only met the Sports Minister but was also treated to a presidential street naming ceremony in Aso Rock Abuja.
		Additionally his season's training expenses have been taken over by the Sports Ministry.
		The making of Uchenna Emedolu Street in Abuja also included a reception held in his honour at the media centre the following day after the airport reception where the athlete's mother and other family members were treated to handshakes and encomiums poured on the mother for her steadfastness in supporting her son's athletic career.

	No. 861: Corruption and Debt Reduction
		For example, Buhari may have won in the court of public opinion but the judges in that court are powerless because they can't actually swear him in; in fact, the judges in the court of public opinion can't provide Buhari with the official keys which he needs to access the Aso Rock mansion.
		Right from 2003, the court of public opinion backed Buhari's claims that the election laws were weighted in favour of the incumbent (Obasanjo) and that Buhari, as challenger, lost simply because neither he nor his party could match the PDP foot soldiers who swayed many voters with financial and other incentives.
		The Supreme Court ruled emphatically on Friday, July 1 that Obasanjo's re-election in 2003 was valid despite claims by the appellant, Muhammadu Buhari, that the election was marred by irregularities and bare-faced malpractices.

		The rock above the cave, Kuroishi, affords the most spectacular and uninterrupted views of Mt. Aso and the Ariake Sea, and it is said that on this precipice Musashi sat and meditated for ninety days before beginning his masterpiece.
		The cave in which Musashi wrote The Book of Five Rings, is set deep in the countryside, mercifully free of all the usual gumpf associated with a Japanese tourist destination.
		In the two hours I spent there I saw no one other than the monk who maintains the site, and the five hundred buddhas said to have reached Nirvana (and Uniclo judging by some of the scarves they sported).
